OmahaJames Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Here it is, a 1977 Datsun B210 coupe. Its got the 5 speed transmission and the California emissions. Runs okay, but not as well as the red one in front of it. 3 Quote Link to comment

racerx Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Forgot to ask..how's your state with smog laws, here in calif. 75 and below don't need smog. Quote Link to comment
OmahaJames Posted May 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Forgot to ask..how's your state with smog laws, here in calif. 75 and below don't need smog. Nebraska doesn't have any smog laws, just the federal emissions laws. Quote Link to comment

OmahaJames Posted May 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Lucky! So what year is the cut-off for Federal Smog law? I am not sure, but the red 2 door sedan I have doesn't have one and its a 1978 model. Quote Link to comment
OmahaJames Posted May 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Now I just gotta figure out what I am going to do with 2 B210s. Quote Link to comment
Datsunocaster Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Nice.... Love it!!! Customize one up and keep one original specs!!!! Just an idea... Quote Link to comment
az_rat210 Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Nice Condition. Get the white one running well to drive and focus on finishing the red one. Once done to satisfaction, drive the red one and work on the white one. 1 Quote Link to comment
thatdirtykid Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 Nice addition. I imagine you probably picked it up for not much more than the 5 speed transmission is worth to the MG guys. 1 Quote Link to comment
angliagt Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 Actually,the 210 transmission is the preferred one. Quote Link to comment
OmahaJames Posted May 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 I like the idea of swapping out the engine on one of these for something with a little more power, but really I do not have the know-how or probably even the right tools for something like that. Quote Link to comment
OmahaJames Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 I got a set of 6 spoke Datsun 280ZX wheels, they are in pretty good shape but need to be cleaned. They should fit the stock suspension setup right? I also have the struts from that same 280ZX but I have yet to swap the coils on them. Assuming they fit, I am torn on which vehicle to put them on. I am not sure if I want to leave the white one completely stock with the hubcaps or put these wheels on it or buy a nicer set of wheels for it. What do you guys think? 1 Quote Link to comment
